It is raining and raining.. and now cold. We finally ordered and returned enough turnout sheets that I have on that fits, just in time for the 42 degrees and heavy rain coming tonight! I unfortunately did not have enough time to have him completely relax with the sheet prior to putting it on as he was already starting to shiver from being wet/cold. We safely put the sheet on without any incident (though he was worried and it took some time). Shortly thereafter both horses took off playing, galloping and bucking in the rain. The sheet is no longer returnable...and Poptart learned that it is not a good idea to gallop in slick mud on a steep hillside. He took 2 big slides on his hind end, covering the sheet with mud, but thankfully both he and the brand new, expensive turnout sheet are just fine!
And now it is time for Poptart and Rogan to go load and eat dinner in the horse trailer in the rain...
